To our readers,
We have great news: The journalists of the Los Angeles Times have reached a tentative agreement on our first union contract with our owner, Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong.
The contract still needs to be approved by our membership. But the terms of the contract ensure that for the next three years, The Times will be a good place for journalists to work and build a future for their families.
